cramps
Any advice to sooth cramps? Or any good medicine?
I know Advil, Tylenol, lying on your back, and exercising helps.
Any other tips?

Midol or a heating pad...

Well like you said, those work.
You could also try taking a warm/hot bath or a little excersising.

hey!
ok well try a heating pad they are amazing. My cramps go down real fast leaving the heating pad on high for like 10 minutes. If that doesn't work try a cool wash cloth then the heating pad.
Some warm tea would work too!
And of course lay down!
hope this helped

You have many options here. It's well known that regular physical activity helps reduce the cramping in some women, so there's an idea. You could also try taking a warm bath and using aromatherapy. Applying a heating pad on your lower abdomen or back should do wonders. If you don't have a heating pad, you can make one by simply filling a sock with rice and heating it in the microwave for a few minutes [must sound silly, but if the cramps get bad enough, it just might be worth it]. Or try laying in bed, on your side, and curling up into a ball by bringing your knees up towards your chest. That does true wonders for stomach pains. Also, a healthy diet can play a big role in this. Do your best to avoid salty foods, because they retain water, causing you to bloat. Vegetables and citrus fruit would be helpful.

Midol is the best for cramps, I always recommend it.

Pamprin works also, but so does Midol.
Warm baths help like crazy, so do heating pads. Get out and have a fun day with the girls :] Do your best to get your mind off of it!
